thoughts are this should have been posted on the lcca forum....kinda thats what its there for.-jim

Another forum cross-over controversy.  Why do these things keep happening?

Because you have to be a member of the LCCA to purchase the outfit?

It seems to me that choosing the most specific forum for the topic at hand is appropriate.

I have noticed that a lot of LCCA related posts are put up twice, once in the LCCA forum, and once in the General 3 rail forum.
If the management wanted to do away with a bunch of the forums, that wouldn't bother me one bit.
I am happy to be a participant here, and try to abide by the management's rules.

I'm not a member of the LCCA; but I think they made a great choice with LC+.  Anybody can run it on their layout.  I would have joined LCCA if just the powered GP7 was offered for sale.  Why offer the fantasy caboose as a separate sale piece and not the loco?  I don't see the logic of that decision.

Same here, but from a different angle. They ought to "thin the herd" when it comes to forum topics. The last thing I have time for is combing through a dozen forums. If a topic isn't here in the general forum, I won't be seeing it! I'm glad when things like this are cross-referenced, at least.

I had the same thought when I saw the ad.

"C W": What about allowances for non-LCCA members, who may possibly looking at the general forum, then see that this set is offered ... & then deciding to join LCCA so they can buy it?   Your plan would eliminate this scenario.

Good point. It's good for these things to be posted here - I for one wouldn't have seen it otherwise.

According to that logic, posts about the TCA ED York Train show should be here too.
Doesn't really make any difference to me.
